In the past, the village of Liptovsk\u00fd J\u00e1n was known mainly for its <\/span>warm mineral springs<\/strong>, the number of which was fourteen. For many centuries, people from this part of Slovakia have divided the springs into two categories \u2013 <\/span>hot springs<\/strong> (teplica) and <\/span>cold springs<\/strong> (medok\u00fd\u0161). It is said that people discovered the healing power of their springs by chance. Local women used to soak hemp more often and with pleasure. They appreciated beneficial effects of the spring, thanks to which they were getting younger, dancing longer and their rheumatism and joint pain simply faded away. In the 16th century, even the mineralogist Juraj Werner described beneficial effects of these springs in his book “O podivuhodn\u00fdch vod\u00e1ch Uhorsk\u00fdch” (About Miraculous Waters of the Austro-Hungarian Empire). As a result, the first tourists came here and noblemen started to explore not only the beauties of the Tatra Mountains but also the springs in J\u00e1nska Valley. However, they did not soak hemp in the springs, they bathed there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
